What Don Studey's Green Hollow Has Finally Exposed

Sixteen months. Over a hundred hours of phone calls. Multiple trips to rural Iowa. An FBI dig infiltrated in a rental car. A Gacy connection nobody saw coming. Alleged mob ties. An unsolved robbery.

Two sisters telling opposite stories. And a case that refuses to die. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta — host of the Defense Diaries podcast and the man behind the most comprehensive John Wayne Gacy investigation ever produced — tells the full story of his time inside the Don Studey case for the first time.

Don Studey is the alleged Green Hollow Killer — accused by his own daughter Lucy Studey-McKiddy of killing dozens of women and burying them in wells on the family's property near Thurman in Fremont County, Iowa. Bob drove to Green Hollow when the FBI moved on the property, got waved past a checkpoint, watched the dig from the fence line, and discovered that Gacy's first victim Tim McCoy was from the area and related to the Studey family.

In the nearby towns, locals shared decades of stories about the man their parents warned them never to go near. Bob uncovered alleged connections to the Kansas City mob and an unsolved violent crime. Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Drake provides the behavioral analysis — real trauma, credible childhood outcry, possible memory exaggeration in the numbers. After three days the agencies closed the case. Lucy says they drilled the wrong well.

The Paramount+ documentary My Killer Father: The Green Hollow Murders is streaming now. Full conversation with Tony Brueski, Robin Drake, and Bob Motta.
